the Waimea court house last
Thursday afternoon, a resolution

land It i-i not anticipated that Kauai's
fight lor the convention will be
difficult in fact it was understood
at the time of the former conven
tion that if Kauai would step aside
in favor of Main, the Garden Island
should have t h e convention in
1915. This is supposed to be pretty
well understood' at Honolulu, on
Maui and Hawaii, so that all the
committee will likely have to do
will be to present their application

There was some discussion as to

lentgh, outlining: what some of his
policies would be. Anions other
things, lie seemed to feel that the
homesteaders should, in view of
the low price of pineapples mid the
high price of sugar, turn their a'

that the Chamber should ass st
them in obtaining favorable con

Mr. Hansen, chairman of the

Mr. Hrodie, chairiu m of the
Membership Committee, asked for
information as to the specific du
ties of his committee, it appearing

and it seemed to be the general
opinion that it would probably not
run over 250. The delegates to
the convention were cautioned to
- get a line on tjiis particular for
future reference.
Kauai is assigned two, set
speeches at the Maui convention,
the one being on the subject of
"Co-operation" and the other
on "Kauai". Rev. I M. Lydgate
was appointed to handle the form
er and Senator E: A. K'.iudsen the
latter.
The Inter-Island S. N. Company
has arranged to take the Kauai
delegates to Honolulu on the
steamer Likelike, leaving here on
the afternoon of October 1, and
arriving in Honolulu on the morn
ing of October 2. In the city, the
. Kauai delegates will join the dele

organizations there and proceed,
the same afternoon, in the Mauna
Loa, t6 Kahului. The return to
Honolulu will be made the follow

Kauai delegates will arrive home
